Demaryius Thomas Not Practicing Friday

New York Jets wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (knee, ankle) is not practicing Friday and looks unlikely to play Sunday vs the Steelers. This would be the second straight missed game for the veteran wide-out who also missed time earlier in the season with a hamstring injury. Expect Vyncint Smith to play in three WR sets […]

Jets Defense Not Recommended Sunday

The New York Jets Defense may be getting Pro Bowl safety Jamal Adams (ankle) back ahead of a "home" game vs the Steelers, but they are still not an attractive unit to start in your fantasy championship. The Jets, understandably, got gashed by Lamar Jackson and the Ravens last week but also played poorly vs […]

Don't Start Daniel Brown Or Trevon Wesco

New York Jets tight ends Daniel Brown and Trevon Wesco will likely split snaps again this Sunday versus Pittsburgh, with Brown the one likely to see more work in the passing game. Brown and Wesco are third and fourth on the Jets depth chart with starter Chris Herndon IV (hamstring) and backup Ryan Griffin (ankle) […]

Jamison Crowder Startable Despite Tough Matchup

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder exploded for 90 yards and two touchdowns last week in Baltimore and is a startable option again this week despite another tough AFC North opponent. Pittsburgh is a daunting matchup, but Crowder has gotten at least seven targets in four of his last five games including a team-high […]

Le'Veon Bell Faces Tough Matchup In Revenge Game

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell likely circled Sunday's matchup with the Steelers the day it was announced, but will face an uphill battle to find fantasy production vs his former team. Pittsburgh has one of the strongest defenses in the league allowing the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs. Bell, on the […]

Sam Darnold An Unappealing Option In Week 16

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold has limited the turnovers that plagued him earlier in the season, but is still not producing at a level that would make him a strong play in fantasy. Darnold has eclipsed 300 passing yards just once in his last nine games and has more than two touchdowns just once […]

Exit Velocity Pitching Leaders - Statcast 2019 Review

Ah, winter, the true dead zone of baseball coverage. The new champs have been crowned, vacation plans are made, the awards are being handed out and the winter meetings getting underway. Sounds like the perfect time to review some Statcast data in preparation of 2020 fantasy drafts. Exit velocity has become one of the more […]

Ty Montgomery A Non-Factor Against Ravens

New York Jets running back Ty Montgomery had two rushes for five yards while catching his only target for an additional five yards. Montgomery's biggest impact in the game came returning kicks as he took a backseat to Le'Veon Bell in the backfield. With Bell healthy and Bilal Powell (ankle) working his way back there's […]

Jets Defense Gets Shredded, Scores TD

The New York Jets Defense was unable to slow down MVP front-runner Lamar Jackson and the high-flying Ravens offense on Thursday night. Baltimore's offense couldn't have done much better playing against practice cones, as Jackson had all day in the pocket to do whatever he wanted, which was usually throwing to wide-open receivers running free […]

Sam Ficken Dreadful On Thursday Night

New York Jets kicker Sam Ficken missed his only field goal and made just one of two extra points in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. Ficken was the hero last Sunday with a walk-off field goal, but had a night to forget in Week 15. To be fair, the kick Ficken missed was a […]

Daniel Brown Makes One Catch Versus Ravens

New York Jets tight end Daniel Brown caught just one pass for four yards in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. Brown got just two targets while filling in for the injured Ryan Griffin (ankle) who was filling in for the injured Chris Herndon (hamstring). Brown is a serviceable blocker, so there's that, but the […]

Vyncint Smith Catches Three Balls Thursday

New York Jets wide receiver Vyncint Smith caught three of five targets for 40 yards in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. The 40 yards are a season-high for Smith who got more playing time with Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) missing the game in Baltimore. Smith has just three games this year with more than one […]

Jamison Crowder Has Huge Night Thursday

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder was one of few bright spots for the Jets Thursday, going for 90 yards and two touchdowns on a team-high 11 targets. Crowder got off to a hot start, making five catches for 72 yards and a touchdown in the first half. He cooled down after that but […]

Robby Anderson Goes For 66 Yards

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson caught four of six targets for 66 yards in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. Anderson had a chance at a big day, but a would-be touchdown was knocked away by Jimmy Smith at the last second to keep the Jets out of the end zone. The six […]

Le'Veon Bell Has Best Rushing Day As A Jet

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell rushed 21 times for 87 yards while catching both of his targets for one yard in the passing game. Bell missed the Week 14 game vs Miami and his fresh legs were leaned on heavily in this one as no other Jet had more than two rushing attempts. […]

Sam Darnold Has Another Average Day

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold went 18-for-32 passing for 218 yards and two touchdowns in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. Darnold also threw an interception and lost a fumble as turnovers continue to be an issue for the sophomore signal-caller. This was a typical game for Darnold, he's had over 300 yards passing […]

Jets Defense No Longer A Streaming Option

The New York Jets Defense had a nice run of solid matchups, making them an attractive streaming option in fantasy. That portion of the schedule is over and so is the Jets defense's usability in fantasy. The Jets will take on MVP candidate Lamar Jackson and the high-flying Ravens on Thursday night in Baltimore in […]

Jamison Crowder Struggling, But Still Seeing Targets

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder has been ice-cold lately with just seven catches for 56 yards over his last three games combined. Prior to that ugly stretch, Crowder had been playing very well, but quarterback Sam Darnold has been connecting more with Robby Anderson in recent weeks. It's understandable if fantasy owners want to […]

Robby Anderson A Strong Start Despite Tough Matchup

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson has been on fire lately and should see plenty of targets again Thursday when the Jets visit the Ravens. Anderson got off to a horrible start this season but has been red-hot lately with 100-plus yards in two straight games and a touchdown in three of his last […]

Le'Veon Bell A Volume-Based RB2

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell is recovered from his illness and will suit up for the Jets Thursday in Baltimore. Bell missed the Jets Week 14 win with the flu, but has been a full participant in practice and should be good to go Thursday. Running lanes will be hard to come by […]

Gerrit Cole To Yankees - Fantasy Impact

Cue up the Star Wars music, the Evil Empire landed their man. The biggest free agent of the MLB offseason is officially off the board, as first reported by Jon Heyman of MLB Network. Gerrit Cole and the New York Yankees are in agreement on a nine-year $324 million contract. Cole's contract is the largest […]

Sam Darnold Faces Tough Test In Week 15

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold has been a streamable quarterback over the last month, but fantasy owners who had been relying on the sophomore signal-caller may want to explore other options in Week 15. Darnold has played well in recent weeks with soft matchups but this Ravens Defense is a different animal than Darnold […]

Colts Place Parris Campbell On IR

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell (foot) has been placed on Injured Reserve ending his season. It's an unfortunate, yet fitting, end to the rookie's season having battled injuries to his hamstring, abdomen, and a broken hand before a fractured foot put him on season-ending IR. Campbell finishes his rookie season with 18 catches for […]

Bilal Powell Not Expected To Play With Ankle Injury

New York Jets running back Bilal Powell (ankle, illness) is not expected to play Thursday night at Baltimore. Powell, who was filling in for Le'Veon Bell (illness) injured his ankle at the end of the Jets Week 14 win over the Dolphins. Powell is also apparently dealing with the flu but head coach Adam Gase […]

Luis Urias to Brewers, Trent Grisham to Padres - Fantasy Impact

It's hot stove time and there's already been more activity on the market than we've seen in the past couple of offseasons, with more big signings on the horizon. One of the first and more surprising offseason deals to get done was a trade between the Brewers and Padres that sent infielder Luis Urias and […]

Jets Optimistic About Le'Veon Bell

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell (flu) is "pretty close to 100 percent," according to head coach Adam Gase. Bell didn't practice last Thursday or Friday and was absent from the Jets 22-21 win over the Dolphins in Week 14. This is great news for the Jets who lost backup Bilal Powell to an […]

J.D. McKissic Makes Four Catches Sunday

Detroit Lions running back J.D. McKissic rushed one time for two yards and made four catches for 16 yards in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. McKissic continues to be the passing downs option in the Detroit backfield but isn't getting enough work to warrant starting in fantasy. He has a good matchup with the […]

Bo Scarbrough Grinds Out 65 Yards On The Ground

Detroit Lions running back Bo Scarbrough rushed 19 times for 65 yards in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. Scarbrough added one catch for five yards through the air. Scarbrough has completely taken over this backfield as no other Lion had more than two carries. Despite the work, Scarbrough's fantasy value is capped somewhat by […]

Danny Amendola Makes Five Catches Sunday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Danny Amendola made five catches for 34 yards in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. Amendola had eight targets, which was tied for the team lead, but couldn't do much with them vs a stout Minnesota defense. Amendola continues to have more fantasy value in PPR leagues as he gets a […]

Marvin Jones Held To 38 Yards In Minnesota

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones caught just three of seven targets for 38 scoreless yards in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. Jones hasn't had more than 46 yards in four straight games now and has been reliant on nine touchdowns this season to find fantasy production. Rookie QB David Blough starting for Detroit […]
